## CSS Sticky Header Widget

### Flexible client-side table sorting

Back to documentation

### Notes

- This demo uses the CSS Sticky Headers widget which uses CSS transforms to reposition the table head.
- CSS transforms are supported by most modern browsers (not IE8 and older).
- The jQuery UI themed table does not stick to the top of the page due to the extra padding. Adjust the `cssStickyHeaders_offset` option as desired. I didn't bother in this demo because it includes more than just the jQuery UI theme.
- This widget will not work with the original tablesorter, but works optimally with tablesorter v2.8+ (Added v2.14.2; Updated v2.14.4)

### Change log

- In v2.16.4, added the `cssStickyHeaders_filteredToTop` option. When `true` the table top will scroll into view after being filtered. This is done because if the sticky header is active, and a filter results in say only one row, the table will scroll up out of the browser viewport. If setn to `false`, no scrolling is done.
- In v2.14.4:
  - Added `cssStickyHeaders_attachTo` (default set to `null`). Setting this option with either a jQuery selector string (`".wrapper"`) or jQuery object (`$(".wrapper")`) to attach the sticky header to this element - see the second example below.
  - Removed `cssStickyHeaders_offsetX` option & renamed `cssStickyHeaders_offsetY` to `cssStickyHeaders_offset` as the horizontal offset is not required.
